Description of problem: When I run system-config-date in recently updated 32 bit Rawhide VM, it does nothing except hang. There is a 'pkexec' process taking up approx 70% of the CPU time, but apart from that nothing happens. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): system-config-date-1.10.1-1.fc19.noarch How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. sudo system-config-date
BTW even: # system-config-date --help just hangs (again, pkexec process running using CPU).
Sorry, that was me being stupid -- pkexec should run the actual python script, not the pkexec wrapper. Should be fixed in 1.10.2 which is building right now.

system-config-date-1.10.1-1.fc18.noarch is buggy because calls itself [sergeil@f18a ~]$ cat /usr/bin/system-config-date #!/bin/sh exec /usr/bin/pkexec /usr/bin/system-config-date
(In reply to comment #4) > system-config-date-1.10.1-1.fc18.noarch is buggy because calls itself Yes, see my comment #2 -- I failed to update the package version in the bodhi update when adding this bug at first, that's why comment #3 mentions the old (buggy) version. Try version 1.10.2.
